THE FRENCH Battle-Door.

En la lumiere de la quelle▪ Christ vo••s a illumine, en icelle croyez, a fin que vous cognoissiez l'unction en vous pour vous enseigner.

LEs François a••ssy bien que tous a••tres ont••la propre distin∣ction entre le singulier & plurier, co••me appert par leurs Grammaires, es quelles ils enseignent parler Tu, au singulier & Vous, au plurier, & ainsy ont ils traduit le Bible, encore qu'en leur parler ordinairement ils la semblent manquer disant Vous quand ils parlent a un seul, & le mesme [Vous] quand ils parlent a plusieurs, & ainsy par l'ambition sont degeneré de leur propre language, comme il se trouve en leurs Grammaires & Bible.

That is,

THe French as well as all others have the proper distinction betwixt the singular and plural, as appears by their Grammars, in which they teach to say [Tu] thou in the singular, and [Vous] you in the plural, a•••• so have they translated the Bible; although in their speaking ordinarily they seem to want it, saying, [Vous] you, when they speak to one alone, and the same [Vo••s] you, when they speak to many, and so through ambition are degenerated from their own Language, as it is ••ound in their Grammars, and Bible.

	Singular			Plural
L'Homme	is	A Man	Les Hommes	is	Men
La Femme	A Woman	Les Femmes	Women
Le Roy	A King	Les Roys	Kings
L•• Roine	A Queen	Les Roines	Queens.

Or po••r dire les Hommes, les Femmes, les Roys, les Roines: pour l'Homme▪ la Femme, le Roy & la Reyne: c'est a dire qu'il y a plusieurs Hommes, plusieurs Femmes, plusieurs Roys, & plusieurs Roynes, quand il n'y a qu'un Homme, qu'une Femme, qu'un Roy, & qu'une Royne: car l'Homme, la Femme, le Roy, la Royne est d'un, & les Hommes, les Femmes, les Roys & les Roynes est de plusieurs.

That is,

Now to say men, women, Kings, Queens; for a man, a woman, a King and a Queen: this is to say, that there are divers Men, divers Women, div••rs Kings, and divers Queens, when there is but one Man, but one Woman, but one King, and but one Queen: for A Man, A Woman, a King, a Queen is of one, and Men, Women, Kings and Queens is of many.

Singular			Plural
Ie ou may	is	I	Nous	is	We
De moy	Of me	De nous	Of us
A moy, or me	To me	A nous	To us
Moy or me	Me	Nous	Us
De moy	From me.	De nous	From us.

T••	is	Thou	Vous	is	Ye or you
De toy	Of thee	De Vous	Of you
A toy	To thee	A Vous	To you
Toy	Thee	Vous	You
D•• ••••y	From thee.	De Vous	From you.

Il ou luy	is	He 〈…〉〈…〉	Ilz eux, or leur	is	Them
De luy	Of him 〈…〉〈…〉	D' eux, de leur	of them
A luy & luy	To him, or to her	A eux, leur, leurs	to them
Le & luy	Him 〈…〉〈…〉	I••••z, eux, les	them
De luy	From him, 〈…〉〈…〉	Deux, leurs	from them.

Or est ce bon François, pour dire Nous, Vous, Ils, au lieu de Ie, Tu, Il? n'est ce pas mettre le plurier pour le singulier? comme si vous n'eussiez pas telle distinction en vostre Language.

That is,

Now is it good French to say We, Ye, They, instead of I, Thou, He? Is not this to put the Plural for the Singular?

as if you had no such distinction in your Language.

Mon	or	le mien	is	Mine	Le nostre	is	Our
Ma	la mienne		La nostre
Ton	le tien	Thine	Le vostre	Your
Ta	la tienne		La vostre
Son	le sien	His.		Their.
Sa	la sienne		Leur

Or pour dire, Nostre, Vostre, Leur, quand on doibt dire, Mo••, Ton, Son, c'est comme si on parlast de plusieurs quand on p••rle d'un seul; & est-ce bon François cela? ••omme, pour dire ••'est Nostre livre, quand on entend ou veut dire c'est Mon livre; n'est ce pas improprentent dit? & neantmoins n'est ce ••as si propre que de dire Vostre teste pour La teste?

That is,

Now to say, Our, Your, Their, when one should say, Mine, Thine, His, this is as if one spake of many when he speaks but of one; and is this good French? as, to say It is Our ••ook, when he means, or would say, it is My hook; is not this improperly said? and yet is it not as proper as to say Your head for Thy head?

Singular			Plur••l
Ie vay	is	I go	Nous allons	is	We go
Tu vas	Thou goest	Vous allez	Ye go
Il va	He goeth.	Ils vont	They go.

Or pour dire, Nous allons, vous allez, ilz vont, quond on doib•• dire Ie vay, tu vas, il va, est dire, Nous pour Ie, Vous pour Tu, Ilz pour Il, est cela bon François pour mettre le Plurier pour le Singulier?

Now to say, Nous allons We go, Vous allez Ye go, Ilz vont They go; when one should say Ie v••y I go, Tu vas Thou goest, Il va He goeth, is to say Nous We, for Ie I; Vous Ye or You, for Tu Thou; Ilz They, for Il He; is this good French to put the Singular for the Plural?

Singular			Plural
Ie crains	is	I fear	Nous craignons	is	We fear
Tu crains	Thou fearest	Vous craignez	Ye fear
Il craint	He feareth.	Ils craignent	They fear.

Or pour dire Nous craignons, Vous craignez, Ils craignent, quand il vous faudra dire Ie crains, Tu crains, Il craint; c'est mettre le plurier Pour le Singulier; & dire que plusieurs craignent

quand il n'y a qu'un qui craint car Nous craignons, Vous craignez, Ils craignent sont Plurier, et parlent de plusieurs; & Ie crains, Tu crains, Il craint sont singulier, & parlent d'un seul.

That is,

Now to say, Nous craignons We fear, Vous craignez Ye fear, Ilz craignent They fear, when you should say Ie crains, I fear, Tu crains Thou fearest, Il craint He feareth; this is to put the Plural for the Singular: and to say, that Many fear, when but One feareth, for Nous craignons, Vous craignez, Ilz craignent, We fear, Ye fear, They fear, are Plural, and speak of many; and Ie crains, Tu crains, Il craint, I fear, Thou fearest, He feareth, are Singular, and speak of one alone.

Or pour mettre le Plurier pour le Singulier, ou le singulier pour le plurier est parler comme mal sçavant; car Claudius Mauger en son livre enseigne parler au singulier et plurier, qu'on doibt parler ainsy, & puis le confonde autre fois, & dit a une femme, Madamoiselle Vous parlez mieux que moy, en lieu de Tu parles, qui est Vous pour Tu: & Pag. 116. il dit, Monsieur, Je suis vostre serviteur, icy est Vostre pour Ton: Est ce selon son Instruction, pour dire Vous pour Tu, & Vostre pour Ton? & ••••••sy a oublie sa premiere Instruction la quelle est, Tu & Ton, a un seul? Est cecy propre [ou pertinent]? Ou tu (Claude Mauger) n'es tu pas icy impropre d'estre enseign∣eur d'autres, qui ne parles pas Vrayement ta propre Language, ny vray François, ny vray Anglois; Ou penses tu que les Anglois n'ont point l'oeil pour voir dessus toutes ces choses la, qui ne sont pas degenerez, de leur propre Language Maternelle, mais cognoissent le singulier du plurier, & ne confondent pas l'un avec l'autre?

That is,

Now to put the Plural for the Singular, or the singular for the plural is to speak as unlearned: For Claudius Mauger teacheth in his book to speak singular and plural; that men should speak so; and afterwards confoundeth it again, and saith to one Woman, Mistriss You speak better than I, instead of Thou speakest, which is, You for Thou: And Page 116. he saith, Sir, I am your Servant, here is Your for Thy: Is this according to his teaching, to say You for Thou, and Your for Thy; and so hath forgotten his former teaching, which is Thou and Thy to one alone,: Is this proper (or pertinent)? Or Thou (Claude Mauger) art not thou here unfit to be a Teacher of others, who doest not speak true thy own Tongue, neither true French, nor true English? Or dost thou think that the English have not an eye to see over

all these things, that are not degenerated from their own mother-tongue, but do know the singular from the plural, and do not consound the one with the other.
